The name of the High Hopes stamp I've used on this card is called "Summer Sweetness". Could this name be any more perfect for this cute image?
The sentiment on this card is created on the computer...but High Hopes has a sentiment perfect for this image..."You're one in a Melon".
I used copics and prismacolor pencils to color this card. I also used H20's to deepen the shade. The little detail dots are made with a stylus using acrylic white paint.
Nesties were used for the circles (how did I ever do anything without them?...lol).
The lace flower was created by gathering a small amount of lace and tying it off to form a circle. I borrowed this idea from the very talented Bev.....here is her card and instructions.
